238. Why Everybody Is Suddenly Using Empagliflozin


Listen Later

Jardiance has exploded in the longevity and fat loss world, but most people still have no idea how it actually works. You hear about glucose dumping, ketone shifts, inflammation changes and kidney filtration, but the mechanism is rarely explained in a way that makes sense.

In this episode I break it down with zero nonsense. You will learn how empagliflozin, the compound in Jardiance, blocks SGLT2 in the kidneys, forces glucose into the urine and creates a consistent calorie leak each day. I show you how that impacts fat loss, metabolic flexibility, ketone production, hydration and long term cardiometabolic health. I also compare Jardiance to retatrutide, GLP-1s, tesamorelin, metformin and tesofensine so you understand which tools target appetite, which target the liver, which target the kidneys and which have the biggest impact on body composition and longevity.

If you want a clear breakdown of where Jardiance actually fits in a real protocol, this episode gives it to you straight.
